We had one at 26w2d with our first and got some lovely pictures of his face.
My husband said he didn’t want to bother this time.
I do think the whole appointment felt a bit rushed and short for the amount of money it cost though !
Speaking of scans! When would everyone say is the best time for a 4D scan?
We had one at 26w2d with our first and got some lovely pictures of his face.I wonder this too, and are they worth it ?
I don't want to find out. It's one of the few surprises you get in this life. I like the idea of finding out at birth. I'm actually worried I'll spoiler it fir myself my seeing the gender at the scan.Can I ask - how did you decide you wanted to find out the sex? I feel like I do as I’m a planner / more logical (eg only have to think of one set of names) but my boyfriend wants to wait. Others have also said they wanted to wait until birth.
I had one at 28, almost 29 weeks. The place went to says between 26-32 weeks but guess it depends where you go.I wonder this too, and are they worth it ?
We did it at 29+2 and it was amazing. Baby came out looking just like the scan.Speaking of scans! When would everyone say is the best time for a 4D scan?
We didn't find out until the birth but I've always, always wanted girls, not boys. So to have a little boy presented to you was a bit of a shock and I did really struggle with accepting/bonding with him (though tbf I have a history of shit mental health anyway, hormones hit me like a brick at the best of times and I am prone to anxiety and depression). But I do truly believe you get given the baby you need, not the baby you want!It’s ok to be disappointed, I was gutted when my 3rd was a boy. Cried for weeks, literally weeks which feels ridiculous now esp as everyone says they got over it which in a day or less but at the time it felt very overwhelming. I wasn’t that I didn’t want a boy, I just thought he’d be my last and was mourning almost for a girl I’d never get and that mother/daughter relationship I’d never have.
I knew I’d feel sad which is why I did the early scan to try and get used to it before hand and I’m doing the same again this time. Don’t think I’ll be as upset this time though, I couldn’t imagine my boys being anything else now and I’ve not let myself get my heart set on a girl like last time x
I know that some people have changes to their menstrual cycle after having the covid jab, but I’ve never heard anything in relation to bleeding and pregnancy. Brown is obviously not fresh blood which means it’s unlikely to be anything concerning but I’d give your maternity services a call for reassurance and just keep an eye out for if anything changes xxI’m 20+5 today and had my covid+flu jab yesterday. Am I right in thinking that for some people the covid jab can cause vaginal bleeding? I’m sure I read that somewhere but I’m not having a luck when googling about that and pregnancy.
I didn’t notice anything yesterday and only noticed something when I could finally get dressed this morning that I had browny stuff in my underwear and having it now mixed in with any discharge.
Hoping everything is okay.. there’s no red flow or anything so I should just see how it goes right?
I almost wish I didn’t get the jab now but I never had issues with it last pregnancy 🫠
It’s probably nothing? But just something to worry about 🫠
I think the evidence of bleeding is limited to one study (proving a very small amount of women had bleeding/interrupted menstrual cycles) and anecdotal on the internet…I’m 20+5 today and had my covid+flu jab yesterday.

My experience with calling maternity services here for anything in my first pregnancy felt like they were uninterested until after 25 weeks 🥲I think the evidence of bleeding is limited to one study (proving a very small amount of women had bleeding/interrupted menstrual cycles) and anecdotal on the internet…
I wouldn’t just immediately put it down to that but remember there are lots of things that can irritate the cervix too so may well be nothing - I always think best to be checked anyway
Congratulations! I'm having my first in Dec (I'm 34 weeks today). Happy to answer any questions you have at any time. It's been quite the rollercoaster so far.Hi everyone, just found out I’m pregnant yesterday 🥹 can I join the thread?

You can choose your hospital and register directly with them. First timer here too! Due this week.Thank you for all the love 🥹I just don’t know what to do now haha! How do I get a midwife? Do I just call the midwifery department and tell them I’m pregnant? Is it a catchment area thing, or can I pick which hospital? Is there anything else I need to do? I’ve already been taking folic acid for 8 months so I’m good on that front!
Omg Massive congratulationsHi everyone, just found out I’m pregnant yesterday 🥹 can I join the thread? First time mum here, no sisters and no friends who have had a baby and feeling quite overwhelmed!

On this they had options of which hospitals were closest and you could choose which one you wanted your care to be atThank you for all the love 🥹I just don’t know what to do now haha!

I just contacted my GP, they did a test and confirmed pregnancy and said a midwife would be in touch to arrange a visit.Thank you for all the love 🥹I just don’t know what to do now haha!
